To access the objects in the master page you need to create a masterpage object in the page you are referring!!!

Before pageload write
master_page_class_name masterpage_objectname;

and write this is pageload:
masterpage_objectname= (master_page_class_name)Page.Master;

Now use the masterpage object to alter the menu
hope that helps!!

Error in invoking upload_serverclick method

Hari_101016-Jul-07 19:55

Hi all,

I want to upload multiple files in ASP.Net 2.0 with the file upload control. So I have download the source code "Upload multiple files Hotmail style -
Kwame Hubbard" from the following site.

http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/multiuploads.asp

It seems that everytime I invoke this method, it will tell me that "Error - a file name must be specified" no matter what I do. The add and remove methods work just fine.

In anycase, in the upload method, it seems to always think that filecount or ListBox1.Items.Count is equal to 0, and therefore won't proceed with the uploading.

Is it because the buttons themselves are webcontrols, while the upload is a htmlcontrol? Somehow the html control is not able to access the existing value of filecount.

So could you please help me out to solve this problem. Please its very urgent.

Thanks and Regards,
Hariharan C

Hello

I am not getting why you are going behind the way what the article explained ? Uploading multiple files will be such a simple task if you use gridview and normal HTML upload file control. What you need to do is

1. Place a GridView
2. Add template column
3. Add File upload control to template column and make it runat=server
4. Codebehind, use gridviews FindControl() method to find the upload control.
5. Use uploadcontrolObj.PostedFile.SaveAs(filename)

If you are uploading very huge files, you need to change something in Web.Config.

Yes Navaneeth, I am familiar with gridview.

First you need to place a gridview. Add a template column. In ItemTemplate add
<input type="file" id="MyFileUpload" runat="server">

Assume you need to upload 5 file. So you need 5 rows in grid view. For that create a dummy datatable with 5 records and bind to gridview. Now you will see gridview binding with 5 records and in each row you will get each file upload control.

Down to gridview place a button. Inside button click write

for ( int i=0;i<GridviewRows;i++)
{
    HtmlInputFile fileUpload = (HtmlInputFile)GridView.Rows[i].Cells[FileUploadCell].
FindControl("MyFileUpload");
    fileUpload.PostedFile.SaveAs("YourServerLocation");//Need to use server.mappath
}

FindControl method will find the control from gridview and give you the object. Using that object you can do upload. You need to handle exception efficiently. This will raise NullReferenceException if FindControl() is not getting the object. So make sure that you will specify the cell where FileUploadControl resides.

Hi Navaneeth,

Thanks for your code. But my problem is, my client dont want that much file upload control to be seen in the UI. The requirement of my client is, he needs only one file upload control and in one click he wants to select more than one file at time.

Can we create any web user control. Do you have any suggestion for that.

Thanks and Regards,
Hariharan C.

Why don't you tell this first. So whatever code I written for you in previous posts became unusable Mad | :mad:

. No issues, let's start again from the scratch.

Now for this requirement we can follow the method what that article say's. But you can't reuse the article code since it won't work perfectly. You need to do some small changes in his code. You can try with this

1. Put one file upload control.( As your client said )
2. Put list box just to show the files selected. No much role in this movie
3. Place two buttons with "Add to List", and "Upload" texts.
4. OnClick of "Add to List" button, get the postedfile object and store that in one arraylist.
5. Now move arraylist to one session. ( Used to get the value across page postbaccks )
6. On Upload button click cast session to arraylist. Then cast array list object to HttpPostedFile object. Now use SaveAs() method in that object

In that article author is not using sessions. Your Upload button code would be

ArrayList ObjArr = (ArrayList)Session["files"];
HttpPostedFile postFile = (HttpPostedFile)ObjArr[0];
Response.Write(postFile.FileName);
Response.Write(postFile.ContentLength.ToString());
postFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("/filename.zip"));

Hi Navaneeth,

My problem is I want to select more than one file at one click. For example, take winamp or windows media player. If we want to play songs from a movie, what we will do is browse and select all songs.

Like that I want to work in ASP.Net 2.0. By clicking the Upload file control, I want to select more than one file at a time and I want to upload it into my database.

So could you please help me out to solve this problem. Please...its very essential for my project.

Thanks and Regards,
Hariharan C

Add these three controls to xml page.
<asp:textbox id="txtColumns" runat="server">
<asp:button id="btnGenerate" runat="server" onclick="btnGenerate_Click" text="Generate">

<asp:gridview id="mainDataGrid" runat="server">

then add this code behid the button on click event
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
if (txtColumns.Text.Length > 0)
{
string[] str = txtColumns.Text.Split(',');
foreach (String st in str)
{
dt.Columns.Add(st);
}
DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
dt.Rows.Add(dr);
mainDataGrid.DataSource = dt;
mainDataGrid.DataBind();
}

You can also use switch statement for decision making in selecting color.

God Bless you.
